AI Article Synopsis

  • The chloroplast genome of a unique Chinese plant species was studied, revealing a total length of 153,311 base pairs and 37.6% GC content.
  • Its structure consists of a large single-copy region, a small single-copy region, and two inverted repeats, totaling 133 unique genes, including 88 protein-coding genes.
  • Phylogenetic analysis shows this species is closely related to its typical variety, providing valuable genetic data for future identification and studies.

Article Abstract

The complete chloroplast genome of a Chinese endemic species var. was reported and characterized. The length of chloroplast genome is 153,311 bp, with 37.6% GC content. It has a typical quadripartite structure, including a large single-copy region (LSC, 84,287 bp), a small single-copy region (SSC, 18,094 bp) and a pair of inverted repeats (IRs, 25,465 bp). Totally, 133 unique genes were predicted, including 88 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes and eight rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis and genetic distance revealed this species is sister to its typic var. . This study offers novel genetic data for the molecular identification and phylogenetic analysis of the .
